Planning a stag do is one of the most exciting—and important—jobs for any best man or close mate of the groom. Whether it’s a single day of action or a full weekend of antics, it sets the tone for a proper send-off. If you’re not sure where to start, have a read of our What is a Stag Do? blog to get to grips with the traditions, ideas, and modern-day stag trends.
Not all stag dos are created equal, and that’s the beauty of it. Some groups lean into wild nightlife and city bar crawls, while others crave high-energy adventures or refined dining experiences. There’s the option of adrenaline-fuelled outdoor activities for the thrill seekers, laid-back countryside escapes for those who enjoy a pint and good conversation, or spa days and fine food for a more sophisticated touch. The key is knowing your group—and choosing something that will bring everyone together for a memorable time.
The UK is full of incredible stag do locations. Cities like Manchester, Edinburgh and Newcastle are popular for their buzzing nightlife. Meanwhile, countryside retreats in the Peak District or Snowdonia offer the perfect balance of outdoor adventure and peaceful surroundings. But for a truly versatile, breathtaking and unforgettable experience, one destination stands above the rest: the Lake District.
The Lake District ticks every box for a stag do or away day. You’ll find stunning natural beauty, thrilling outdoor pursuits, charming pubs, and plenty of space to relax or go all-out. Whether your crew wants to hike mountain passes, try extreme sports, or enjoy hearty meals and a few drinks with a view, there’s no shortage of choice. If you’re new to the region or just looking for inspiration, have a look at our blog Things to Do & See in the Lake District to get a feel for what’s on offer.
The Lake District is built for unforgettable group experiences. From kayaking on crystal-clear waters to ghyll scrambling through fast-flowing streams, there’s something for everyone. Walk the fells by day, tuck into award-winning local food by night, or test your courage on high-wire bridges and climbing routes. It’s the perfect backdrop for team bonding, laughter and stories that’ll be retold long after the big day.
